It is very hard to find how to report errors etc. It’s easy to find the area but to actually post is not intuitive. Great way to limit responses but horrible customer support and even worse web design logic.
For anyone who comes upon this thread and has trouble posting, here are the requirements before you can create a topic:
A quick note to users new to this forum!
First, Welcome to the Forum for Empires & Puzzles!
Just a quick note. When you first join your account has trust level 0. You are only able to make replies to existing posts at first.
To remove the new user restrictions (eg, not able to create a topic) you need to do all of the following:
enter at least 5 topics
read at least 30 posts
read in the forum for a minimum of 10 minutes
at least click on the message waiting for you from discobot
It seems to take a moment for the system to catch up with you meeting these requirements. If you have done these 4 things you could log out and log back in to force the system to refresh. Once you see a notice that you have achieved the Basic badge, you will have had the new user restrictions lifted from your account!
If you are uncertain if you have met the goals, you can click on your profile image, and look at your summary.
Also, I request that you use the search feature to do a quick check to see if someone has already started a thread for the idea or questions that you have. Joining and advancing a conversation in progress is much more useful to the community than starting multiple mini threads on the same topic!
Please see this thread for further discussion:
